Fence Services in St Augustine, FL

Every St. Augustine project is quoted free and on-site. Historic District homes need permit-aware planning, Anastasia Island, Davis Shores, and Vilano Beach need corrosion-resistant materials and deeper posts for salt air and sandy soil, and World Golf Village and Palencia need styles that clear HOA standards. We match the material and approach to your part of St. Augustine.

Fence Installation

We install fences across St. Augustine, Anastasia Island and St. Johns County, matching the material and style to coastal conditions, local code, and any preservation or HOA requirements for your specific property. Every post goes in on the iDrive Power System, driven 48+ inches into undisturbed soil and 10x stronger than traditional concrete footings. That foundation holds especially well in the sandy coastal soil where conventional concrete footings shift over time. No yard disruption, no deposit required.

Fence Replacement

When a coastal fence fails, the problem almost always starts below ground. We haul the old fence, reset on iDrive posts driven 48+ inches into undisturbed soil, and build to current St. Johns County code and coastal conditions. That foundation holds in the sandy soil that shifts conventional concrete footings over time. One written quote, no deposit required.

Fence Repair

Salt air off Anastasia Island accelerates corrosion faster than most homeowners expect, and sandy coastal soil lets concrete-set posts shift until a gate won't close or a section leans hard. We repair fences throughout St. Augustine, World Golf Village, Anastasia Island, Davis Shores, Vilano Beach, and St. Augustine Beach. Every repair includes an on-site assessment and a written quote. We'll tell you when a targeted repair is the right call, and when it isn't.

Fence Types and Materials

Every property has different needs. We offer five materials to match your budget, style, and how much maintenance.

White Vinyl Fence by Fortera Fencing

The low-maintenance pick. No painting or staining, and it shrugs off coastal humidity.

A wrought-iron look that won’t rust. Good for pool enclosures and yards near the water.

Cost-effective security for yards, pets, and commercial perimeters. Galvanized against salt-air corrosion.

Combine materials, like aluminum posts with vinyl panels, for a custom look.

Full-privacy backyards. Board-on-board and shadowbox styles, built for Jacksonville heat and humidity.

Fencing in St. Augustine and St. Johns County

St. Augustine projects follow St. Johns County permit rules, and within the city limits, municipal rules too. We pull them for you, pool-barrier code included. Your Free, written quote covers the full scope before we break ground. Near the water, salt air pushes the material choice toward coastal-grade aluminum and vinyl. In the Historic District, fence style and placement can trigger preservation review, and we design around it.

I hired fortera to build a fence around two new construction houses I built. They came out quick for an estimate. Gave me a great price and knocked out a quality fence quick. 10/10. Will be using them again for all my builds moving forward.

Recently used the team at Fortera Fencing to re-install our aluminum fence after a backyard project and couldn't be any happier. The entire experience was seamless, transparent and most of all professional. This wasn't your Chuck-In-A-Truck outfit...there was a clear plan from start to finish and that plan was executed in a timely fashion. Do NOT hesitate to call Fontera!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you pull St. Augustine and St. Johns County permits?

Yes. St. Augustine fence permits follow St. Johns County rules, plus additional municipal requirements within the city limits. Requirements vary by location, property type, and whether your project is inside the city’s Historic District. We verify requirements for your specific address and handle all permit pulling as part of the job. Pool-barrier code compliance is included.

Coastal-grade aluminum or vinyl is the right call for most St. Augustine and Anastasia Island properties. Salt air accelerates corrosion on untreated metal faster than most homeowners expect. Aluminum does not rust and holds its finish without painting or treatment. Vinyl resists moisture and humidity at the panel level. Both are set on iDrive posts driven at least 48 inches into undisturbed soil, which matters especially on sandy coastal lots where traditional concrete footings shift over time. We give a specific material recommendation on-site based on your location and use case.

Fence installations in or near the St. Augustine Historic District can trigger preservation review, which adds requirements around materials, colors, height, and placement. We design around those rules and handle the submittal process when required. If your property is in a preservation zone, tell us at the estimate and we’ll build the approval timeline into the project schedule.

Yes. The newer inland subdivisions south and west of the city, including communities near World Golf Village and the St. Johns/St. Augustine corridor, often have HOA requirements that parallel what we handle in Nocatee and Ponte Vedra. We prepare and submit the architectural-review package as part of the job.

Cost depends on material, linear footage, fence height, gate count, terrain, and any permit or HOA requirements for your property. Coastal properties sometimes require upgraded hardware that affects total cost. The best way to get an accurate number is a free on-site estimate. We come to you anywhere in St. Augustine and give you a written quote the same day. No deposit required.
